70's blouse done!

This blouse was easy construction until the collar. I kept reading over the directions and after taking it out 4 times, realized I was reading the directions for view 3 not view 4! Some days I am not very observant. Remember the purge from my closet I did a couple weeks back? Well, this blouse is an effort to add some much needed solid colored clothing to my closet. It's a mystery fabric, but it's heavy and feels good on.

Hey Miss P, yes this was another high bust measurement. It a 32. It's fits pretty nice. It's not fitted as much as my other dresses. So it's going to be a shirt I wear to work in. Thanks for all your comments!! you guys are wonderful!

I have just found your blog for the first time and I love it, I must have spent most of the afternoon browsing through everything you have made and it all looks fabulous!I have just decided to return to dressmaking after not making clothes for many years and your blog has certainly given me the inspiration to pick up my dressmaking scissors again. I have a cross stitch blog and I am considering starting a sewing blog soon.

Such beautiful creations, I think my favourite is the gingham dress with the red piping, very beautifully put together!
